I'm trying to get my Bluetooth headset dialing to work -- no response from phone.

I downloaded Choice Dialer from Market the other day with RC3. Have since reflashed RC3 and added SteelBlue theme. Now Market doesn't return Choice Dialer as a search result. Is my Steel-Blue Market app out of date or something?

Regarding this Bluetooth headset dial thing (without having to touch the phone), would someone who has it working well PLEASE tell me how you do it? I have been asking this question on a couple of ROM forums and never get a response. What voice app are you using, what speech sythesis on the phone (mine is Pico), what do you do to initiate a call?

Thanks
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Hey man, I know how you feel...I've had some frustrating issues too. The first time I tried Bluetooth voice commands on my Blueant Q1 it did not work. I promptly posted this issue and then thought perhaps I should reboot. Well, after that it worked and has ever since then. There is nothing special you should have to do...you headset dictates what initiates the voice commands. For the Q1, all I have to do is press the action buttonk it then tells me to say a command, and I say, "voice commands" and then Choice Dialer comes up and asks me to say a command, like, "call mom."
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
hmm thats weirs , so your saying when adding a contact to the list it will get saved first and last name inverted ,,, not sure what coudl be causing this . as you probably know my next tip (insert smilie here) just addd them inverted for now .. will do more testing on that for RC5 ( if we get to 5 as release candidate )

time for testing is now .
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
RC4 is still warm :cool: op updated link added (click picture ) . only full wipe , sorry the non wipe caused problems not sure why until I figure it out , full wipe it is ;
[Captivate Android Development] jastx:
:rolleyes: You're doing well on the updates. As long as you are adding items to the list for the next release, in addition to this Contacts issue from post 328...

1. Compass is 180' off -- points south instead of north. Affects Google Maps too.

2. Please try to fix black on black text in Zeam and Touchdown displayed in posts 305 and 307

3. Not ROM but related, I think SteelBlue has some problems with Market not showing apps. I'm going to RC4 and not using SteelBlue anymore.

4. I REALLY want my Bluetooth headset dial to work. What do I need to do?

Installing RC4 now...

Thanks!
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
well , about the compass , please post ascreenshot (its pointing the right direction here )

touchdown and Zeam are market apps , not only they will eventually update , but we have to find 'how to invert the text ' for sgs tools for example we still cant fix it (we ll find it tho) , contacts and emails been fixed , a few others still missing .
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Fritz, was this supposed to be in the Calendar.apk in RC4? I'm still seeing black on black - see attached.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
I got you, I did re dl several times, usually one of the first things I do when having my own personal issues. That's cool though, going for RC4 now. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] Cezar`:
Man, I love dark themes but this is the biggest letdown when you use one, you will definitely have compatibility issues due to un-standardized methods used by applications devs. Thank god users have such a great support from DAGr8 and the team so they can enjoy a dark theme.
[Captivate Android Development] RichMD:
+1

I just installed the full Steele Blue theme and it is stuck at the Chinese kernel boot screen... I wasn't sure if there was a specific one for KP5 but figured I'd just give it a shot - Will reflash now...
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Yeah, this theme is by far my favorite, and I've tried and looked at a lot of themes. I saw the post form Fritz about the code and how app devs are calling on background color. That's too bad, cause inverted is a great way to go, look-wise and for optimal battery usage.

On another note, I'm on the fence about wanting numbers on the battery icon - I find myself going in to Settings to check the level. However, when there are numbers on the battery, I have a tendency to focus too much on the level. :confused:

Oh, and Cezar, your sensation theme is pretty cool too. I really like the app icons.
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
So, I just got a notice while using swype that my trial period is up and it just stopped working. Any ideas???
[Captivate Android Development] jastx:
I got the same thing and because of that Swype won't work.
[Captivate Android Development] jastx:
DAGr8 and all who have worked hard to develop DRAGON.

I have flashed RC4. I had high hopes for this ROM. It's 2.2.1. It's smooth and fast. Developers are responsive.

What it needs is just a solid non-invertive theme without all the cutsey-pie smiley face droid stuff everywhere you look.

Unfortunately, using the default invertive theme (attractive as it is) my main app Touchdown, as discussed, is black on black in its settings, Zeam my laucher of choice has black on black issues. Choice Dialer, probably critical for real Bluetooth headset diailing, has so much black on black it it unusable. I think the developers need to spend less time on fixing never-ending invertive issues and address the basics first. Come up with some quality, clean non-invertive themes that work, then go after the complicated invertive stuff.

Guy, I'm sorry but this ROM just isn't working for me. I really wish it did. I have find something else or revert to my previous ROM. Thanks for the experience.
[Captivate Android Development] neptronix:


I just flashed the dmt theme then replaced the inverted gmail app with the stock gmail and problem solved. Granted it would be nice to see more themes for this rom but you can't have it all so soon.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
You can try this one Swype from RC2, it's still working. I do know that officially Swype is a beta program. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
Ya its kinda silly it did that not exactly sure why. Will submit a themed working one soon

sent from the future using xda app
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
One can only do so many things you know?

I ported 2 themes + with major help from fritz we made an original one for the rom I asked a few guys to port there theme to this rom ... if you guys go in there theme thread and ask for ports it will help

Hey DAGr8, is there a reason my wifi won't work with data on also? I always used to use it that way but it doesn't seem to work with dragon. Just kinda a pain to manually switch back and forth when at home etc. :cool:

BTW, on RC4 now, just got done flashing. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
jas, PM fritzgerald and ask him to fix touchdown and Zeam for you. I'm sure he will and it won't take him long. It's worth a shot if you want to stay on this ROM.

DAG, a blue themed swype would be cool...I'll wait for it (hopefully not too long :D)
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
taz, I'm not having this problem. Question: What ROM were you on before you flashed back to stock and then flashed Dragon?
[Captivate Android Development] balishared:
weird...

i still get the default launcher FC's when i flash over RC's. on RC3 since it was impossible to access the desktop, i decided to press the power button to go to recovery and fix permissions, instead it sent me back to lockscreen and "media scanning completed" message appeared while the dragon roared, never went to recovery and launcher FC's ended.

still having the same issue with RC4 :confused:

anyways i m going to re-flash from stock when i m back at my pc, like i usually do

launcher2.apk is my favorite launcher ;)
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
I was on Perception 10.2 but that was a week and a half ago. Certain apps, market, facebook, etc., won't connect unless I turn one or the other off.

Strange I know but I've tested it on other wifi networks to make sure it wasn't my home networks fault. I've never had this issue before and I've been on 2.2.1 roms for awhile.

I've tried it with the stock kernel and modem as well as other combos. No difference there so I don't think that's the issue. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Was curious, because I think what could explain why mine is working is remnants of other ROMs flashed prior to this one. I don't know...just guessing. I don't have the Time Zone issue either. Not sure how to explain some of this stuff...I've had my share of non-replicatable issues on this ROM that I never had with others. I've stuck with it because I was able to resolve my issues with re-flashing, etc. and because I just love this Blue on Black theme!!

If you stick with this ROM, I hope you find a way to get your issues resolved. Wish I could be more help. Maybe post a logcat for DAG to look at??

--Edit--

JS7 comparison (Serendipity 6.1): Compared both ROMs WITHOUT any lagfix - these KPx ROMs are less laggy in my experience.
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
hi , this issue is kinda weird becuz the incrmenetal I made to go from rc3 to rc4 did break wifi , while there is absolutely nothing changed ont he wifi side goin to rc4 it was unclear why it did that so I decided no to post it .

I am sure you already tried reflashing ? and master clear wont help so dotn waste tiem with that :)

Since I fixed the timezone thingy I can explain why only some person are experimenting different levels of problems with it , when playing with the codes I replaced 'registers and conditions' in order to get some mods goin on, while doing it I did not render the code useless but malfunctioning ,every hardware cope with the problem differently , stuff may or may not work simple as that . when I ported the 'no clock toggle' I noticed how messed up the Settings.apk had become and it took no less then 4 hours ++ for me to redo the whole thing , and when I finally did , well nobody is experiencing issues anymore .

The point in all this you may ask ? I value every report you guys give me , but keep in mind as much as its frustrating for you guys some sometimes it s much more frustrating for me becuz if I cannot replicate your bug I can not fix it .

the more testers I have the more chances I have of finding bugs/fixing them .

Kp5 was samsung's latest SGS kernel release until JF7 came along , now there is something more recent out there while I firmly believe the i9088 kernel is closer to our device then the i9000 the stock i9088 kernel is doin wonders for me here , I use to be a crazy OC person ( phone runs unstable @1.6ghz) , we dont have source for neither of these kernels so i will stick with Kp5 and will continue fixing bugs you guys report

All I ask is that each cosmetic report has a screenshot attached to it and that each 'FC' has a logcat attached to it .

in order to submit a logcat connect your device (usb debugging on ) to your pc start adb ( if you dont have adb set up already you should and google will help you )

type this : adb logcat > bugreport.txt

then have the error happen

then on your computer just hit ctrl-C the file willbe inside yoru sdk/tools folder .

attach it to the post where you are reporting the issue .

Voila simple as this .
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
yea , I keep sayin it but some ppl still doubt it , the way I do my roms I mod everything from source , no apk swapping or anything , everything is 'original' apk and framework I dont do apk swapping , same for the mods , I port the mods I dotn jut swap smali files last but not least the kernel is root of the phone, a js7 rom with an older source kernel and an older source modem is nothing else then a cherry on top of the same old ice cream

not saying ice cream aint good or anything .

Edit : Eventho , Jastx said he was goin elsewhere I feel somehow he is right , and will provide a non inverted theme for Dragon when I hae time to do it , unless more themers step up to make there theme compatible with ours , I will be porting other 1 more theme to DRAGON this week gingerbread style , and I will also provide unthemed files in the theme thread so ppl wont have to pm me in order to ge tthe unthemed files . like i previously said , there is only so much one person alone can do .
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Dude, I've told you this before, in the thread and in PM's: YOU ARE DOING AN EXCELLENT JOB! No other dev has taken on such a challenging ROM and many take the much-used shortcut of apk swapping. I know I've been frustrated from time to time, but this is still my favorite ROM and theme (Dragon).

So, here are some requests that may or may not be possible, and may or may not take a lot of time to accomplish:

1) The Data Toggle in the pull-down is just not that useful (to me), so I'd like to see it changed to the GPS toggle.

2) The SNS integration is not working like other ROMs, evident through Account and sync. For instance, in other ROMs, Integrated contact account includes Facebook, Twitter and MySpace. These integrated accounts work slightly different then, for instance, using the Market Facebook app. For example, Facebook integrated account synchs the Facebook calendar.

3) Port the battery mod from Green Theme and change to blue - see attached screenshot.

The things that work in JS7 that don't work quite as well/differently in KP5 are not worth staying with JS7. I am going to restore KP5 shortly.

Oh, and JF7??? Haven't heard of it yet. What phone is it for?

When source rolls out for this ROM and these later-released kernels I can only imagine what a dev of your calibur will be able to do with it. :D
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
ya jf7 = typo

completely unthemed available on first thread its at the end of OP

so if any themer or anyone needs it for personal use all I ask is you share screenshots in the theme thread and link it here

will port steel blue for V4 now as well as DMT , if I have time ill port GB theme as well today
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Oh, ok. Thought there was a new ROM out (wasn't being a sa).
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
I share your point of view almost completely; I too need a functioning phone for my business. The BT voice dial problem you're having is perplexing to me - mine works fine AND it worked in Andromeda too. What headset do you have? Has it worked on any Froyo ROM?

I also have not had any issues with Contacts sort. Are you creating your new contacts in Touchdown, or from within Contacts?
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Hey DAGr8, thanks for all of your work on this. My wifi on with data on seems to be working most of the time now, I really believe it's just how some apps handle the options the first go around, no fc's to report so far on RC4.

I blended the RC4 icons with Steel blue RC2 icons and made my own twframework-res and framework-res in a CWM flashable zip to get the best of both the themes, love it. :cool:

This rom is one of the quickest I've used even before over clocking, love the work and keep it up. ;)
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
+1 on great work. This guy is working his A off on this ROM. And - DAG correct me if I'm wrong - but he's not doing this for a paycheck.

Yep, PNG swapping is fun...I've never had a ROM where everything I wanted was all in one package. I have to learn how to mod apk's so I can swap app icons.
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
hey , thats a good idea you had there , may I ask you submit your work so I can add it in theme section , I was hoping to make a 'user submited work ' in there .

I added GB theme in there if anyone is interested ,

Also in theory the current RC4 framework-res shoudl be kitchen compaitble ( havent tested it yet )

oh and im currently workin on fixing the buttons for the black on black text this way you will get an option to use DRAGON , NOT inverted .
[Captivate Android Development] dicksteele:
real quick. can I drop this on top of RC1, or do I need to go back to stock then flash rc4?
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
just flash on top
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
whoever rated this rom 1 star

obviously it was rated one star becaust ihad 5 stars before that so to drop it 1 star significantly like that someoen obviously rated it 1 star only , so would you please explain to me whyits worht only 1 star ?

thank you .
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
I noticed that. Someone is being a jerk. I rated it 5 a long time ago, still feel it is. Don't sweat it DAG.
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
ya , happenned on another thread of mine to , haters gonna hate . no biggie , I just like to know why so I can improve...

On that note , I added numbered circle battery mod to OP

and Un-inverted framework res witch means the buttons and pop up are less attractive and there is a tad bit less blue but no more blk / blk text ever in any apps , both are flashable zip .
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
I registered for Swype and themed it to match DRAGON theme , it is linked in OP and in 2nd post .

Alright ill call it a day now , Boomerod try the files attached here push them to system/app let me know if this fixes the facebook 'sync' problems your experiencing (it should but I dotn use facebook so kinda hard for me to test )
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is this Rom still having compatibility issues with the Suckerpunch voodoo kernel? I've been wanting to flash this for a while now, but I read somewhere that it wasn't getting along too well with my favorite kernel ever. hopefully I misunderstood and this rom actually gets along with SP-vd.

Herp derp Captivate XDA app.
[Captivate Android Development] DAGr8:
Suckerpunch didnt cope well with Fugu Tweaks (wasnt the rom itself but an add on ) , not to brag or anything but since this rom was the first captivate rom with that tweak it was the only one with the problem, its been fixed on kernel side now so you dont have to worry anymore .
[Captivate Android Development] pizz0wn3d:
Dope. I noticed the update for fugu tweaks as well. Glad to see the problem has been sorted out. I'll probably be flashing this tonight then.

Herp derp Captivate XDA app.
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Alright DAGr8, like I said it's just the pngs in framework and twframework but I'll put it where ever you want, PM me I guess or I'll pm you cause I know your busy.

Good news on the swype too! :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Bluetooth Voice Commands

First, I'm posting this after having flashed back to stock and then an un-modified, exactly as it was prepared by DAG RC4 package.

NOTE: Do not pair your headset before following this procedure (out of an abundance of caution and to keep it simple and easy to follow).

1) Install TTS: You can get it from the Market by searching for it or you can go to

Settings > Voice input and output > Text-to-speech settings

(you should be prompted to install; if not, tap Install voice data)

2) Once TTS has been installed, go to the Market and download and install Choice Dialer (it's the best voice command/dialer app and will even wake the phone - allows you to dial or give commands without touching your phone and by only using the action button on your BT headset).

3) Start Choice Dialer and go through the step-by-step config.

4) Reboot your phone.

5) Put your headset in pair mode and go to

Settings > Wireless and network > Bluetooth settings

and tap Bluetooth and then Scan devices - you should then be able to pair your headset.

6) Once headset is paired, tap your headset action button and Choice Dialer should start up and ask you to say a command.

PM me if you're having any trouble.
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Thanks, DAG. Will try these out. Thanks for the Swype too!
[Captivate Android Development] jastx:
THANK YOU DAGr8 !! You are one responsive developer. The unthemed un-inverted version solves all my black on black problems and I have a look I can live with based on Nexus Revamped. See attached screen shot. Non-auto time zone settings work again. I am sticking with DRAGON!

COMPASS ISSUE --

Please take a look at the compass - it's not 180 degrees off as I originally thought. It's plain screwed up. Using a compass app, it stutters (jerky movements) as it sits there. It even moves and changes direction when just sitting on a table, dramatically when you move the phone. It often says "Abnormal Magnetic Field Detected, Please Calibrate" when launched but calibration has no effect. FYI, this did not happen with Andromeda, so I know it's not the hardware. It has changed direction almost 180 degrees by itself as I typed this paragraph. It's posessed!

Thanks again for the unthemed version. Well done!
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Tried that Swype and it still said expired beta license. As well as deleting the swype.apk and swype installer.apk files I found 2 library files in /system/lib/ and deleted them. I was then able to update swype with the new beta.

Figured I'd pass that along for anyone having issues installing the beta on a device that came pre-loaded with swype. I posted this in the swype captivate thread at swype's forums too. :cool:
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
I think the compass issue may be kernel related. Try downloading SGS Kernel Flasher from the Market; backup the current kernel and then flash another from the Captivate Development forum. I replicated your 180 degree issue, which resolved after flashing Hardcore's most recent kernel.
[Captivate Android Development] boomerod:
Were you able to get DAG's swype working? I was not, and did, I think, the same as you did - went to the swype website and registered and then installed swype from the email link provided by the website.

--Edit--

Just ran the swype update over the install from the swype website and it worked. Not sure how long it will stay working, but it is as of now. Very nice theming!
[Captivate Android Development] tazman171:
Once you've registered, DAGr8 themed swype works, just have to get to that point. :cool:

Does not appear so
[Captivate Android Development] hey_joe:
Don't know if it's just my unit or it's a bug. Whenever I turn the gps off on the pull down menu ( notification bar ), the data network deactivates and vice versa.

Thanks

edit: it might not be gps but instead data toggle switch. got used to the gps toggle being there so data in it's place is something new to me :)
